giveaway #48

We have a very talented and fun knit hat designer as our guest this week. It's one of my favorite designers: Woolly Wormhead.

Woolly was nice enough to meet up on Skype and do an interview for us; unfortunately, our connection was not quite good enough for a video, but I did get a voice recording. Hope you enjoy the interview!

Thank you so much for visiting us, Woolly! Come back and visit anytime! Woolly has been nice enough to offer the chance for TWO followers to win a PDF copy of her latest e-book, Twisted Woolly Toppers

I just love the hat on the cover of this e-book!

This book includes 10 hat designs that feature unique techniques and offer lots of unisex patterns, which I appreciate. I'm always searching for good looking "manly" hats. I bet hubby would love a Chevron beanie.

Also, TWO followers have the chance to win a PDF copy of one of the following lovely new Woolly patterns:

2. Leave a comment on this blog post by the end of Sunday, 1/2/11. We're switching things up a bit and there's a quiz question this week: Woolly Wormhead only models one of her patterns - which one is it? Don't worry if you don't know the answer! Just leave a comment saying "Hi" to Woolly instead. Have fun!

I'll randomly pick the winners on Sunday and post the results on Monday along with the new giveaway, so be sure to check back. Good luck everyone.

I couldn't recognize WW in the photos, but then, some of them are from the back!I love her designs, she has has endless creativity! By the way my surname is the name of one her patterns posted on the blog - how cool is that. p.s. my Rav name is goodstuff - you can track me down there :-)

Woolly is wearing Igloo, with her dreads peeking out the back. :) I have knit Ziggy, Bobba and Rainbow Warrior,and all patterns are well written and very interesting to knit. I love Woolly Wormhead's patterns! samm

I've been searching to try to figure out which design Woolly models. I can't quite tell from the one or two pictures of her in a hat that I've found. I'm guessing Tea Cosy, but really don't know. I am amazed by her productivity and creativity.

I love Woolly's designs, and am a follower of her blog. Her blog (especially the bits about her new home and the kitties she helps), her knitting, her designs (and the inspiration for her designs) and her photography are always a source of inspiration to me. However I'm unsure as to which designs she herself models.

Anyway, happy new year woolly and Veronika!! Thanks for the great giveaway!

Hi Woolly! I looked through a few of the patterns and could not find the one you (she) models, but I have been an admirer of your(her) patterns for quite a while! In fact I am about to cast on for a rollin' beret! Have been jonesing for a beret for a couple of years and now seems like a good time! But maybe I should hold off in case I win one of the patterns!Debbie

Just listened to the interview with Melissa. This is a great WS. I would love to win the contest, but alas i never do... win things i mean. I knit ever moment i can and my poor hands and wrist..HURT. Never stops me though. not sure how to put a pic on this profile.. can anybody help? thank you yarn on the house. :-)

Wonderful hats. Hi to you and Woolley. Per one of your tweets about the wrap. Rather than break up a friendship, I'm sure someone would love to take that beautiful piece off your hands. Just sayin'. :)
